OK, I am now in K1000, what I am finding are some hyphens with a new line character after them, I don't wish to remove all new lines, just those with a hyphen before them and I am drawing a blank. The thing is, I did apply corrections, tried to do a rank spelling and have word-endings and all sorts of stuff I want to fix, I am getting 95% or so correct words but 6000 not recognized and from looking, the problem is related to this hyphen thing, but I don't want to take all hyphens out either since some are really supposed to be there. Am I making this too hard? Did I wake up on another planet? I swear, if I can fix this one problem about 98% of the corrections will be made.
